Thoughtful Leader Podcast Episode 15 – The Power of Pushing Back

I find pushing back to be an underrated skill. Pushing back means sometimes, you need to say “No” to people who try to burden you with too much work, or tasks that are not even yours to do. This might be your boss, or other colleagues.

It’s not easy, but if you continuously say “Yes” to everything that comes your way, you are heading for burnout, and so is your team. In this episode, Ben discusses the power of pushing back as a tool to help leaders do their best work.
